While we're on it, check out this vid. Hard to really make out what it is but interesting nonetheless.

Speaking of the preview...its looks more like a Universal Studio rollercoaster ride rather than a disaster movie...
"The Day after Tomorrow" did a better job...

why not?
the trailer actually killed my interest to watch it....
John Cusack rushed home and hauled his wife and kids out....into his limo...dodging incoming collapse buildings, then went to an airport...rushed on to a plane...and takes off the very last moment before the earth collapse into the core....and dodging more collapsing buildings....hmmm....
doesn't sound too interesting....

How many dooms day proficiencies turned out to be false? The odds are this one is just as retarded. I wouldn't go spend all my $$ and sell all my stocks. Regarding 2012:

Alien invasion: Definitely not predictable. It is as likely (unlikely) to happen on any other day. Hidden hostile civilization that is hidden on a planet-X in the lagrangian point behind the sun? Well it turns out that L1, L2 and L3 is unstable as shown by the positive eigenvalues of the potential matrix. THe stability of such orbit will be on the time scale of only 150 years. Besides, out space telescopes at L4 and L5 will have spotted such a planet long ago.

Alignment of solar system with galactic center: This happens every year, 2012 is nothing special.

Tidal force of unknown planet tearing earth apart: A planet this close will be spotted by any amateur with a scope already. It could also be seen by the naked eye months before it has the possibility of affecting us. The tidal effect from the moon is minimal and the moon is extremely close. Tidal force decays following an inverse cubic law. If such planet was really to affect earth, it better be pretty darn close, which means that we'll see it way before.

It doesn't matter why, or even how it happens. You can all speculate and develop your theories and watch explanations online, but it makes no difference. Those nay-sayers who go on everyday seemingly oblivious of the inevitability of our day of judgement need not contribute here. Your ignorance adds even less to the discussion than those who spout flawed or biased theory.

The simple truth is that you are all going to die and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
